Home Remedies For Glowing Skin

Natural remedies have been used for ages in skin care rituals. Eating fresh fruits and vegetables is an excellent way to promote internal health, but did you know that some kitchen ingredients can work wonders for skincare while being natural and cost effective? Today, with expert inputs from Dermatologist Dr Meghna Gupta of Delhi Skin Centre, let's get back to our roots and understand a few quick home remedies for glowing skin.

Home remedies for dry skin:

Coconut oil has anti-inflammatory properties. Virgin coconut oil or coconut butter makes a good moisturizer by providing a protective layer.

Apricot and avocado oil mixed with glycerin can be massaged on the face followed by warm toweling for an instant glow.

Mix almond oil with Vitamin E cream and apply at bedtime on face and hands. This leaves the skin soft and supple.

Home remedies for dry lips:

Desi Ghee is the best emollient available off the kitchen shelf. Nothing works better than this.

Apply a mixture of honey and antiseptic lip balm on the lips and leave them for 10-15 minutes. Remove with warm water.

Mix together a few drops of glycerin, lemon juice and castor oil. Apply it on your lips and keep it overnight.
